About Us
80 Years Strong
Our History
Founded in 1947, Rusco began with a simple mission: provide quality products, honest service, and dependable workmanship to local homeowners.
Over the decades, we’ve expanded our offerings from windows to cabinetry and interior solutions, adapting to the needs of our customers while staying rooted in our core values. While products and styles have evolved, our dedication to craftsmanship and community has remained constant.
Today, Rusco continues to serve families and businesses with the same integrity and hands-on service that built our reputation, proving that some things only get better with time.
Built on Integrity
We believe in straightforward communication, honest recommendations, and standing behind our work. No shortcuts. No surprises.
Craftsmanship That Lasts
Quality matters. From the products we carry to the details in every installation, we focus on durability, precision, and long-term performance.
Local Commitment
We’re proud to be locally owned and family operated. Our customers aren’t transactions they’re neighbors. The communities we serve are the same ones we call home.
Serving the Midwest Since 1947
1947
The Original Rusco
Rusco began as a nationwide manufacturer of top-of-the-line steel storm windows and doors, built to withstand harsh Midwest conditions. The company quickly became known for its durability, craftsmanship, and forward-thinking approach to home exterior products.
1956
1st Generation
Earl Olsen brought Rusco to the Fargo-Moorhead area, establishing it as a family owned business rooted in the community. As materials evolved, the company expanded into aluminum products and embraced new technologies, growing beyond its original storm window offerings.
1979
2nd Generation
Richard Olsen modernized the business by phasing out original Rusco manufacturing and forming new vendor partnerships. He introduced vinyl replacement windows, cabinets, and commercial glazing, expanding Rusco into a more diversified and service-driven company.
2016
3rd Generation
The third generation expanded Rusco into a full-service exterior and interior solutions company, adding roofing, siding, entry doors, and remodeling. With 35 employees and growing, the fourth generation (Ryan and Sam Olsen) is preparing to carry the legacy forward.

"Had a triple pane bedroom window replaced to help with traffic noise. Installation went well; workers were friendly, efficient and cleaned up after the installation was complete. Will call Rusco for future replacements!"

"We just had two large picture windows installed. We were very impressed by the installation team. Very knowledgeable and knew exactly what to do to take care of a problem with the previous windows. Showed up promptly at 8:30 and were done before noon. The replaced woodwork was an exact match. They were very conscientious about cleaning up after themselves. The salesman was OK but where Rusco shined was with the installation team. Would definitely use them again!!"

"We had a kitchen window replaced, a patio door with interior blinds installed and basement window inserts installed in our 1975 rambler 8 years ago by Rusco Window. They are still in excellent shape and I expect they will be for many years. Thank you for the great product and service!"

"Hired Rusco to replace several old windows at our lake cabin- fitting into existing openings and adding new - and they did a phenomenal job. On time, courteous, great advice on selecting size and style. We found some minor wall issues while installing and they were quick to get ahold of me to discuss how to fix/address. Finished product was trimmed out nicely and all work areas were clean. I also had them replace a cracked pane & screen on an older window from elsewhere. Very happy. Thanks Rusco!"
